How to programmatically add a deferred operation to delete PersonHasQERResource?

Joemar

We have a use case to to automatically remove a Resource assignment a week after it was assigned.  I have tried to use a deferred block similar to this forum:  RE: Create a Deferred Event Generation Operation from a Script but I can't find an option to create a deferred operation to "Delete" an entry in the PersonHasQERResource.  Any thoughts if there are ways to do this?  Thanks in advance!

    You just load the object and delete it then in the deferred operation block.

    A sample loading the entity to remove (PersonHasQERResource) via the XObjectKey would look like this:

    Dim dbEntity As IEntity = Session.Source.Get(New DbObjectKey(myXObjectKey), EntityLoadType.Default)

' Create a new deferred block for a specified point in time.
Using New VI.DB.DeferredOperations.DeferredBlock(Session, DateTime.UtcNow.AddDays(30), "Optional description for the deferred operation")
    ' Operations done here are done deferred
    Using uow = Session.StartUnitOfWork()
        ' Delete the entity immediately
        dbEntity.MarkForDeletionWithoutDelay()

        ' put the object in the unit of work
        uow.Put(dbEntity)
        uow.Commit()
    End Using
End Using
